    Use an agent to ping another IP

    Hi everyone! Very new to Zabbix here.

    I have a site that connects to another site through a VPN tunnel. I want to be able to use my newly installed agent to ping the server on the distant end of the tunnel so that I know as soon as there is an issue with the tunnel.

    I am trying to use a simple check, icmpping[10.1.0.5, , ,] but I get a result of zero every time and I am wondering if the pings are being sent from the zabbix server rather than the agent.

    I was able to find this rather old post, but I do not understand it. https://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20592
